I Am Batman

this, believe it or not dear readers, is your friend and humble narrator some 30 (!!) years ago! i guess there is a trend in our family to have a thing for The Dark Knight, as i was clearly a Batman fan too, just like James is!!

the best guess we have is that this was taken when i was four or five. the location will be in front of the garage at our home on Longbeck Lane (or Ave?), New Marske, a few years before the whole family moved to Australia. i think i look rather smart in this outfit! we showed James the picture, but he cannot quite imagine that his Dada was, once upon a time, just a small boy like him. oh well, i am sure he will see it again one day when he is older and laugh a great deal!!

now, somewhere there is a picture of me with Richard, featuring, if memory serves me correctly, Richard in either a Robin outfit, or possibly also dressed as Batman. Mum and Dad are looking for it, fingers crossed they find it soon!!!


be excellent to each other!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
